Answer:
Total cost of the suitcase = Rs 2520
Tax = 5% = 5*2520/100 = Rs 126
Cost of the Suitcase = Total Cost - Tax Amount
= 2520 - 126 = Rs 2394.
Step-by-step explanation:
shailenderps:
Cost of suitcase including tax => original price + tax = 2520
Given, Tax % = 5.......Formula, Tax % = Tax/Original Price * 100.....5 = (x/2520-x) * 100 ......12600 - 5x = 100x .....110x = 12600 .... x = 12600/105 = 120 .... Therefore, Tax amount = Rs 120 /- .... Total cost of suitcase including tax i.e Original Price + Tax = 2520 .... Original Price (O.P) = 2520 - Tax ..... O.P = 2520 - 120 = Rs 2400/- .....So, the cost of suitcase before tax was added is Rs 2400/-. .....Please ignore my previous reply!
